Hi everyone,
I would like all Web API WG specs to be reasonably language-
independent and have standard bindings for at least Java and
ECMAScript. In order to achieve this for things like Window and
XMLHttpRequest we will need some help:
We need spec reviewers who understand Java well:
- The main sections of the spec need review to make sure they
are implementable and sane in Java
- The Java language bindings will need close review
We need Java programmers to write tests:
- We need to make sure our test frameworks can support Java. The
one I have so far is totally ECMAScript-centric.
- We need individual test cases in Java.
We need implementors for Java-based implementations:
- We need at least a bare bones test implementation to even be
able to write Java tests.
- We'll need two real interoperable implementations to exit CR
with Java bindings defined.
I definitely don't have the expertise to do any of this for Window. I
hope people can volunteer to help with these areas (whether they are
on the working group or not).
Regards,
Maciej
